In this work, they present 13 review articles describing various aspects of this emerging field, including asymmetric synthesis of chiral sulfoxides, asymmetric synthesis of optically active sulfinic acid esters, asymmetric transformations mediated by
sulfinyl groups, synthesis and applications of chiral dithiocetal derivatives, synthesis and use of chiral sulfur ylides, synthesis and use of chiral sulfoximines, synthesis and use of chiral sulfinamides, asymmetric catalysis using sulfoxides as ligands, sulfones in asymmetric catalysis, and computational studies on asymmetric reactions with sulfur reagents.
